Chronic Mental Problems

Chronic Mental Problems
According to the World Health Organization, over 15 percent of adults over the age of 60 suffer from a mental disorder. A common mental disorder among seniors is depression, occurring in seven percent of the elderly population. Unfortunately, this mental disorder is often underdiagnosed and undertreated.

It is hard to talk about a middle ground for something that is a fundamental right.

Chronic Mental Issues

Older adults account for over 18 percent of suicides deaths in the United States. Because depression can be a side effect of chronic health conditions, managing those conditions help. Additionally, promoting a lifestyle of healthy living such as betterment of living conditions and social support from family, friends or support groups can help treat depression.

In a world where our elders are the most vulnerable and the least cared for, 1stopsheba is trying to bring comfort and peace of mind to them. Time flies and many of us will become senior citizens before we know it. If we do not support these efforts now, they will not be there for us when we need them.

Service is beyond expectations in the context of Bangladesh. My mother was very satisfied with their service. As a health care professional in Canada i feel their service for senior persons is very much coordinated and organized. Definitely recommend them to the people who lives abroad with parents in Bangladesh.
